Rustic Falls
Rustic Falls is an interesting little 47ft roadside waterfall that ripples over a basalt cliff giving the falls a distinctive character to it. It also has somewhat of an unusual fan shape as well. The falls resides below the western slopes of Bunsen Peak in a section of the Grand Loop called the Golden Gate. The area posed a challenge for engineers to build a road through the area. There's a pullout letting you view the falls from its brink roughly some 4.6 miles south of Mammoth. However, I think you can get better views if you walk along the road from here until you get more frontal views of the falls. Tell us about your experience with this waterfall.
